is there a way to increase virtual memory?
Dear Linux experts:

I am running a scientific program. Due to the size of the dataset, the system ran out of virtual memory. Is there a way to increase virtual memory?

Thanks!

Virtual memory is the swap partition. You would need to resize it.

Note also if you are running 32 bit OS the most any process can address (virtual + real) is 4 gig
